I've asked myself so many times, "How did I get here?". How am I to the place where I'm pastoring people that are so "different" than me. However, when I take a closer look I ask "are they that different than me?". I pastor people from many different walks of life, none more interesting than the farmer; take a listen, you'll see what I mean.
